The picture below shows two rectangles. Which rectangle has more area? How can you tell? Discuss with your partner.
Consider the following two shapes. Which shape has more area?
- (a)
- Can you use the same method you used for the previous problem to solve this problem? Why or why not?
- (b)
- Decide which shape has more area, then write a short description of your process.
- (c)
- Can you solve the previous part in another way?
Are there any similarities between your measurement processes for length and for area?
Use an index card (or similar rectangular, non-square item) to find the area of your table. Make a
note of your process. Compare your group’s method to another group’s method. How do your results
compare?
